Remember 🏴‍☠️. Learn how your IPTV systems work so you can change subscriptions and make sure you use a VPN.

To my fellow Brits, a VPN is NOT optional at this point you're just putting yourself at unnecessary risk.

Mullvad is £50 for a whole year, and you can pay by mailing cash to their office or buying a gift card so it's not directly tied to your bank account.

I think this is probably fearmongering to get the rest of us who sail the seven seas of the internet scared.

Where's the fear mongering?

These shutdowns and arrests occur regularly.

The 40 warnings here were to resellers, not viewers. Although they have warned users of services in previous busts.

By your own admission this occurs regularly and this is just shaking the sabre.

I dunno how regular arrests and shutdowns is shaking the sabre. It's straight up using it.

This just a show for the normies.

"Crime" haha
